Rachel Goldstein, UncommonGoods Planner<\/center><\/p>\n

My home town is\u2026<\/strong>
\nAnnapolis, MD<\/p>\n

The word that best describes me is\u2026<\/strong>
\nIs it not one of the most difficult questions to describe yourself in one word? If I have to\u2026.optimistic :).<\/p>\n

My favorite thing about working in the Purchasing and Transportation department is\u2026<\/strong>
\nMy team. They are the best collaborators\u2026and bakers\u2026and diorama makers. Dioramans? Dioramaists?<\/em> Anyway, the list goes on for the reasons why I think they\u2019re so wonderful. (Here’s proof of Purch & Transpo’s awesome diorama skills<\/a>. )<\/p>\n

I\u2019m inspired by\u2026<\/strong>
\nThe kindness of strangers. I live by the mantra that you don’t have to know someone to help them in whatever small or large way you can.
\n
\nIf I could become an expert on one thing it would be\u2026<\/strong>
\nThe inner workings of the NYC Subway!<\/p>\n

My favorite place to hang out in New York City is\u2026<\/strong>
\nThe East River Promenade. Every time I look back at the skyline I feel so lucky to live here.<\/p>\n

An uncommon fact about me\u2026<\/strong>
\nDue to a year stint of intensive studying and a summer living in China, I speak a little bit of Mandarin.<\/p>\n

Since working at UncommonGoods, I\u2019ve learned\u2026<\/strong>
\nThat a long commute can be made less stressful if you get to see the Brooklyn Bridge for a few minutes in the middle of the ride over the East River. <\/p>\n

Would you rather\u2026model every hat UncommonGoods sells for the catalog and website OR test every new UncommonGoods office item?<\/strong>
\nCan I test all of our Tabletop items instead? I love being in the kitchen! I’ll bring in a thank you present….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
